Economy contracts, hubris expands
Having just seen reports that the American economy was actually shrinking in the last quarter of 2012, I have to wonder about all of the rosy rhetoric we heard from the left after the election and leading up to the recent inauguration. Because facts have turned out to refute that rhetoric, surely we are about to hear a lot of retractions and apologies from politicians on the left. After all, they told us (and were clearly, provably, wrong) everything was looking good and we were actually enjoying an economic recovery. As much as I would enjoy watching some progressives eat crow, I'm not going to hold my breath waiting for it. Anyway, the economy turning out to not be as good as we were told won't be important to the administration. After all, if they really cared about jobs, individual freedoms, and the overall economy, instead of big nanny-state government, they wouldn't be on the left would they? No, what's going to be important to the progressives is exactly who to blame for the (further) sagging of the economy. George W. Bush has been gone long enough that I think even the White House press corps (for those who don't know, such as Barack Obama, corps is pronounce core, not corpse) has noticed that George W. doesn't seem to be around anymore. I'm not saying The Barack won't blame George W. Bush, but even on the left that excuse is getting a little stale.Why am I wasting time pointing out that the current administration is going to blame some scapegoat (new or old seems to make little difference)? Isn't this just more of the same behavior the left has been indulging in ever since there were progressives? If it's such old hat, why in the world do I and other people keep bringing it up and beating the same old drum to point it out over and over again?The reason people keep bringing up the propensity of the left to further bad policies and blame it on someone, anyone, else is because it's working for them. Apparently, even in this day and age, there are still people, even a majority of people, out there who simply believe what they are told. While I personally am taken aback when people tell me that The Obama is doing a good job trying to reverse all the damage George Bush did, clearly there are many citizens who have a different view of that than I do.By the way, I do think that George W. Bush did some things that turned out to be a problem (and haven't we all done things we regret). I would love to sit down with him (Bush) someday and ask him what he was thinking when he came up with the Homeland Security Department and the TSA. While I realize there were legitimate security concerns that needed to be addressed, solving those problems by creating a new cabinet level department was akin to killing a fly on your nose with a sledge hammer. If there is time left, or more probably if I'm not thrown out for stating my dislike of Homeland Security, we could move on to a discussion of No Child Left Behind and what it has done to our education system. Yes, George Bush made some mistakes, but one thing he didn't do was destroy the American economy and capitalist system. That work is being done by the current occupant of the White House.Getting back to the subject at hand, right now it appears the left has managed to convince the majority of Americans it's in their own best self interest to continue the progressives in power. It also seems this same majority is in favor of continuing the huge growth in government, government programs, and (over) spending we have endured for far too long. In my opinion, this "brain washing" of so many people is probably the single largest factor in how far the progressives have been able to advance their policies. Seriously, when The Barack can compare himself (favorably) with Lincoln and Reagan, without be laughed off the planet, something is wrong.To give a real life example, I recently had a discussion with an acquaintance who asked me to point out something specific The Barack had done that was harming America. The lead in to that question was that I stated clearly, but politely, that I thought Barack Obama is bad for America. At first this person told me "no seriously." After I said I was indeed serious was when I was asked to back up my statement with an example. Because the person I was talking to is a working person, who earns a living, I pointed out the sixteen trillion dollars in debt with nothing but more increases in sight. The response back, and the person I'm talking about here is fairly well educated, bright, and responsible, was along the lines of "the debt doesn't matter, as long as people respect the dollar we will be okay." I would say I was a little stunned by an answer like that, but in reality, the majority of Americans seem to believe something similar.So why do so many people keep ranting about the disinformation from the left? Because right now the progressives are trying to convince people the Second Amendment isn't about freedom, the size of the national debt doesn't matter, the rich are bad people who aren't paying their fair share, taxes don't hurt the economy, and unrestrained entitlement programs can go on forever. This is exactly the kind of propaganda that should never go unchallenged.What you have to ask yourself is "if the rosy picture the media paints about the current administration were true, wouldn't we be doing much better, and be much less divided right now?" Since the economy is (provably) not doing well, and the American public is as politically, morally, and socially divided as I have ever seen it, what, pray tell, are we not hearing from the main stream media and the left?Bruce Kreitler is the author of Obamageddon (the Culmination of the Progressive Looting of America) and posts this and other articles at BruceKreitler.com.

London Olympics bronze-medallist Saina Nehwal has been seeded number one in the upcoming Yonex Sunrise Indian Open badminton tournament, and given a relatively easy draw in the women's singles event.
The Indian shuttler will face unseeded Idonesian Belaetrix Manuputi in the opening round, the same opponent that Saina played in the All England Badminton pre-quarterfinals last month.
Saina might face some competition from her compatriot and number eight seed, P V Sindhu, in what looks like a clear run to the semi-finals where she could line-up against current number eight in the world Ratchanok Intanon of Thailand.
The last time the two competitors met was in the semi-finals of the All England Championships, with Intanon - who is seeded third in this year's Indian Open - coming out on top.
Saina, meanwhile, attained a career best ranking of number two in the world by the Badminton World Federation in December 2010. But, at the tender age of 23, the first Indian to win a medal in Badminton at the Olympics is tipped for an even brighter future.
The Yonex Sunrise Indian Open badminton tournament starts on Tuesday 23 April and runs for six days until Sunday 28 April.

NY Assembly votes to outlaw ivory sales
NY Assembly votes to outlaw ivory sales
New York lawmakers have endorsed a plan to criminalize the sale of ivory in an effort to protect elephants and rhinos.
The legislation would make exceptions for antiques or items containing ivory that are used for scientific or educational purposes.
The state's Assembly endorsed the measure on Wednesday. Similar legislation is pending in the state Senate.
The Wildlife Conservation Society cheered the passage of the bill in the Assembly and called on the Senate to follow suit. The organization says New York is the nation's Number 1 importer of ivory.
Lawmakers are expected to adjourn their session on Thursday.

6. What
does water content mean?
The water
content indicates the percentage of water of a soft contact lens. High water
content is generally better for the oxygen permeability of the lens material.
Contact lenses with good oxygen permeability (DK value) are therefore
particularly suitable for longer daily wearing times. Contact lenses with high
water content also have disadvantages. They are usually not as stable as lenses
with low water content and tend to leave more deposits in the lens. If you have
dry eyes, soft contact lenses with high water content can cause problems for you,
since these absorb the natural supply of water (film of tears) of the eye like a
"sponge". In such cases lenses with lower water content or a high
water capacity (e.g. Air Optix Night&Day, PureVision, Proclear, Extreme H2O) should be chosen.
7. What does DK-value mean?
DK-value is a parameter for the oxygen permeability of the contact lens (Dk, Dk/t,
Dk/L). The higher the DK-value, the better the oxygen permeability of the lens
material. High oxygen permeable contact lenses improve the comfort for the
wearer and the long-term tolerance. In soft contact lenses the DK-value depends
also on the water content. High water content water content usually improves the
oxygen permeability of the lens material.
8. What do
base curve (BC) and diameter (DIA) mean?
The base
curve (BC) determines the curvature of the inner surface of the contact lens in
mm. The larger this value, the flatter the lens. The base curve of the lens
depends on the curvature of the cornea surface. The fit, however, also depends
on the diameter and the strength of the lens material. The diameter (DIA, DM, øT)
determines the size of the contact lens in mm. Soft contact lenses usually have
a larger diameter and hard contact lenses smaller diameter in comparison to the
corneal diameter.
9. What do handling tint and UV-blocking mean?
lenses with a handling tint have a slight mostly blue for a better handling.
This handling tint serves to help you find the cost lens more easily in the
contact lens container and does not influences your natural eye colour. Often,
this handling tint is combined with an additional UV filter, which protects the
eye from harmful UV-A- and UV-B radiation of the sun. However, an integrated UV
filter is not a replacement for sun glasses.
10. Which parameters do I need to order contact lenses?
To order
contact lenses you need the diameter (DIA., DM, øT) values between 10,00 and
15.00 mm, and the base curve (BC, BK, ro) values between 6,00 and
10.00 mm. You will find this information on your original contact lens container.
Furthermore you need the power (SPH, PWR, DPT, F`v, D) of your
contact lenses in minus or plus diopters (D, dpt). If you wear toric contact
lenses for astigmatism your need the power of the cylinder (Cyl., Zyl.) in minus
diopters and the axis (AX, A, T) between 0° and 180°. If you wear bifocal
lenses for presbyopia you need the addition (ADD, Ad.). Ask you eye doctor or
optician for a contact lens pass.
11. What do CT and LOT mean?
The CT is
a parameter for the central thickness of the contact lens, and depends on the
power (diopters) of the lens and therefore does not have to be stated separately
when ordering. The LOT is a manufacturer specific production number and likewise
does not have to be stated.
12. First fitting or new fitting of contact lenses
If you
are not yet are contact lens wearer, or would like to try out a new contact lens,
you should consult your eye doctor or optician for a new fitting near where you
live. Later, you can then place a reorder for your contact lenses with the known
parameters clearly more economically online. A first fitting or new fitting via
e-mail or telephone advice is unfortunately not possible. Please, therefore,
only order contact lenses that you have well tolerated beforehand and which have
been fitted by a contact lens specialist. Please arrange to have your eyes
checked regularly by a contact lens specialist.
13. Contact lenses for dry eyes
In dry
eyes or an insufficient tear production we recommend contact lenses with low
water content or with a high water
capacity, that is contact lenses that can store the water and not absorb this
like a sponge (e.g. Air Optix Night&Day, PureVision, Proclear, Extreme H2O). But dry eyes can also be a contraindication to wear contact lenses.
In these cases, please contact your eye doctor for further information.
14. Exchange of
products / Return of products
For all
products we guarantee a return within 14 days after receiving the products.
Opened or damaged packaging of contact lenses, care products and accessories
etc. containers can only be exchanged or returned in case of lack of quality.
Disposable lenses in so-called soft packaging (blisters) are, according to
medicine product laws, not for resale and therefore cannot be exchanged.
Furthermore, coloured lenses and so-called special lenses (e.g. toric lenses or
multifocal lenses can also not be exchanged. Please only order contact lenses
fitted by a contact lens professional beforehand and already worn successfully
by you. To promptly assert an exchange of any defective contact lenses at the
respective manufacturers, we ask you to send us the products complained about
at the return address indicated below. Please return products with a letter of
reasons and your bill in copy to the following address. For a reimbursement of
the purchase price, please inform us of your banking details (bank institute,
account no. BSC or alternatively IBAN, BIC/Swift-Code for bank transfers outside
of Germany).

15. Advantages
of contact lenses
lenses offer many advantages, both optically as well as of a cosmetic nature.
The more pronounced the defective vision is, the greater can be the optical
advantages of contact lenses. This applies particularly in the case of
short-sightedness (myopia), but also in the case of far-sightedness (hyperopia)
and astigmatism caused by corneal irregularity. Between the surface of the
cornea and the surface of the back of the contact lens, a so-called tear lens
is formed, which as part of the optical system, particularly supplements the
effect of the hard (stable) contact lens. Even significant defective vision can,
therefore, in contrast to spectacles, be corrected with significantly thinner
contact lenses and without greater problems. Also the illustration errors are
stronger spectacles, e.g. rim distortions, and normally do not occur in the case
of contact lenses. A further disadvantage of spectacles is the magnifying or
reducing effect. This effect is based on the plus glasses magnifying the image
on the retina and minus glasses reducing the image on the retina. Since contact
lenses accompany each eye movement and their centre always lies in front of the
pupil, there are no blurred edges, and the field of vision remains unrestricted.
Through this quality, it is possible, exactly as in the case of spectacles (gliding
sight spectacles, bifocal spectacles), to use multifocal contact lenses. These
contact lenses thus render possible a focussed vision both at a distance as well
as at close quarters. For sportsmen and women, the freedom of movement is
decisive. Contact lenses have a great advantage here. The risk of injury by
wearing spectacles ceases to exist. Moreover, contact lenses cannot get dirty
like spectacles; even in rain and snow, the wearer always has clear vision.
Anyone who works with equipment, e.g. a camera or a microscope, likewise copes
better when wearing contact lenses, in contrast to spectacles, contact lenses
are not in the way. Compliance with safety provisions, such as the wearing
of protective goggle or safety helmets is also easier.
16. Soft
contact lenses (advantages and disadvantages)
contact lenses normally consist of hydrogel, less often of silicon. This lens
material absorbs tear fluid and therefore requires a sufficient tear production.
Proteins and dirt particles can get deposited in the sponge-like structure,
which is why soft contact lenses require a special cleaning. The time required
for getting used to wearing them is much shorter than in the case of hart
contact lenses due to the much reduced feeling being a foreign body, soft
contact lenses are also very well suitable for very sporadic (temporary) wearing.
In contrast to hard contact lenses, with a diameter of around 13mm soft contact
lenses are somewhat bigger than hard stable contact lenses (ca. 10 mm). They are,
therefore, slightly more difficult to handle and if not cleaned sufficiently
more frequently cause infections of the cornea or conjunctiva. Like hard contact
lenses, most soft contact lenses must be taken out before going to sleep.
Besides the normal soft contact lenses (yearly lenses), so-called exchange systems are available. They are distinguished by periods of use of various durations (daily, weekly, monthly lenses). The advantage: one always has a fresh contact lens with constant material quality. After the end of the set period for wearing, the contact lens may no longer be used and must be replaced by a new lens (exchange system).
of soft (flexible) contact lenses:
- Shorter time required for
getting used to wearing them
- Better wearing comfort
- Less feeling of being a
foreign body
- Sporadic wearing possible
- Good adhesion
Disadvantages of soft (flexible) contact lenses:
- More costly cleaning
- Shorter useful life
- In the event of corneal
irregularity less optical quality
- More difficult to manage
17. Hard contact lenses (advantages and disadvantages)
contact lenses consist of synthetic materials such as e.g.
fluoride-silicon-methacrylate-copolymer. Modern hard lenses are distinguished by
a high oxygen permeability and good tolerance. Conditional on their stable
structure, they are easier to manage. The optical quality is mostly better than
in the case of soft contact lenses, since the corneal irregularities can be
automatically equalized by the tear lens arising behind the contact lens.
However, they must be fitted individually and, due to the feeling of being a
foreign body increasingly felt initially, require a longer period of getting
used to wearing them.
of hard (stable) contact lenses:
- Mostly better optical
- Longer useful life
- Easier to manage
- Less risk of infection
- Better long-term tolerance
- Often better oxygen
Disadvantage of hard (stable) contact lenses:
- Initially greater feeling
of being a foreign body
- Longer period for getting
used to wearing them
- Individual fitting
- Less adhesion
- No exchange system
- No sporadic wearing
18. Cleaning of contact lenses
lenses require daily cleaning. Normally, this occurs when the wearer is asleep
at night. For the safekeeping of contact lenses, a series of different cleaning
solutions are available. In the case of modern care systems, mostly several
cleaning stages can be carried out at the same time (All-in-One-care systems).
But multistage cleaning systems are also available (2-stage care systems). A
distinction is made between cleaning systems for soft and hard contact lenses.
In the case of soft contact lens, in addition to the daily cleaning, once a week
a special enzyme tablet is used to remove protein deposits. Disinfection on a
peroxide basis offers the best safety at present. Moreover, the safekeeping
container must be renewed each month.

Anyone got any views on lightning issues.
Lots of the commercial antenna systems make big bones in their advertising about the antenna being DC grounded - having electrical continuity - effectively a DC short across the terminals. This means that some perfectly decent types of antenna can't be used as they are floating - simple half wave dipoles for example. Good matches to the feeder cable and simple construction. Commercial designs seem to prefer folded dipoles with their higher impedance and then a matching network to bring it down to the feeder, as in a balun. Verticals are good examples of where some designs float, and others are grounded.
My view is that my research suggests that a metal object in the sky makes a good lightning attractor, and a few modern piece of research suggest that a grounded metal object in the sky can initiate lightning. On a commercial tower it's clearly something built into the design - with proper heavy duty lightning protection. This makes it sensible that all the antennas are bonded to the structure. When I was at college we had an electrostatic voltmeter, and connecting this to a radio antenna on the roof showed the amazing voltages building up in storms. Some people are very safety conscious and remove the connections to their aerial systems, others don't bother. I've got a few aerials up here - some show a DC short, others don't.
How important is it in reality? I just have a thing that says inviting lightning strikes by grounding the aerials might increase the chances of a hit. what do you think?

DETROIT (Reuters) - Young U.S. consumers want vehicles outfitted with expensive technology that boosts gas mileage and keeps them safe and connected, according to a survey published on Thursday. But the high cost of car ownership remains a stumbling block.
These consumers, ages 19 to 36 and known as Generation Y, are also three times more likely than their parents to abandon car ownership if costs escalate, consulting firm Deloitte LLP said in the study.
The findings suggested that worries that the millennials, as members of Gen Y are also known, are eschewing vehicles altogether may be overblown. But winning them over means striking a balance between making cars affordable as well as technologically advanced.
"Affordability is the mantra for Gen Y consumers who don't already own or lease a vehicle," Craig Giffi, head of Deloitte's U.S. automotive practice, said in a statement.
Millennials account for some 80 million people in the United States, rivaling the baby boomer generation. Their sheer size makes them something of the next big emerging market for automakers like General Motors Co and Ford Motor Co.
Many delayed buying cars during the economic downturn and are open to options like renting cars from Zipcar. Their experience with smartphones has shaped their expectations for car ownership.
"When they do buy cars, millennials' expectations of car ownership could parallel their expectations of technology - where upgrading every two years is the norm," Ford Chief Operating Officer Mark Fields said during a keynote speech at the Automotive News conference this week.
More than 2,000 of the survey's respondents were U.S. consumers, of which 677 were part of Generation Y. Of the younger group, 86 percent owned or leased a vehicle.
Deloitte defines those in Generation Y as people born between 1977 and 1994.
More than half of younger consumers said they expect to drive a vehicle with an alternative engine, such as a hybrid electric, according to the Deloitte survey, which was conducted in 2013.
Almost three-quarters want technology that recognizes the presence of other cars on the road. More than half want technology that entertains them while driving and the ability to use applications on their smartphones from the dashboard.
Analysts said trends toward developing both more fuel-efficient and connected cars were evident at the Detroit auto show this week. One example is Honda Motor Co's 2015 Fit, a "green" subcompact that includes a standard rear-view camera.
Sergio Marchionne, chief executive officer of both Fiat and Chrysler Group LLC, said the company is planning to showcase a small sport utility vehicle at the upcoming Geneva Motor Show.
"It's getting in young buyers who don't have a lot of money," Marchionne said. "So we need to expand the class. We need to get them young so when they get older, they can buy more expensive Jeeps."
Ford CEO Alan Mulally also told reporters it will be critical for the industry to wrestle with the question of affordability as more and more safety, navigation and entertainment options are offered in the cars.
The results are part of a broader Deloitte report to be published later this year on global mobility, based on responses from more than 23,000 consumers in 19 countries.

CNN talk show host Piers Morgan has been making headlines lately, throwing, as one commentary described, a "hissy fit" in front of one guest, berating others and even calling Larry Pratt of Gun Owners of America "an unbelievably stupid man."
But the network's ratings still are in the basement, and now there are reports of a coming shakeup that might move Morgan to a late-evening slot, away from prime time.
The New York Post reported "the slumping cable news network is considering moving his hour-long interview show from the prized 9 p.m. slot back to 10 p.m. – or even later."
A startling graphic posted by the Drudge Report, which quoted Morgan as saying that one day he would beat Fox's Bill O'Reilly, showed Morgan's viewership was 592,000 to O'Reilly's 3,356,000.
In the same time slot as Morgan, Fox's Sean Hannity drew 2,276,000 and MSNBC's Rachel Maddow drew 1,096,000.
Independent WND sources today confirm CNN is "discreetly" looking for producers for a new political show for an "evening time slot."
The New York Post said the shakeup coincides with the arrival of incoming CNN chief Jeff Zucker, who want higher ratings from star performers from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m.
A Post source reported Morgan will remain, as CNN officials "are not interested in doing a total cleaning of house."
Also in the mix would be Anderson Cooper's show, which airs at 8 p.m. and is repeated at 10 p.m. because of the failure of Eliot Spitzer's show.
Morgan, who just marked two years on his show, succeeded Larry King.
The Post reported its source said Cooper no longer would be in two slots, and Morgan "would be moved out of 9 p.m."
The issue of gun control, which Morgan advocates, has been the subject of many of his recent shows.
On one show, he ranted against conservatives Dana Loesch and Scottie Hughes, crumpling his notes and saying their statements made him "sick."
Kelsey Osterman on the Red Alert Politics blog wrote: "Apparently the facts don't matter at all to Morgan and his personal vendetta. But when his logic is so convoluted, all he can do is crumple his notes and throw them in a hissy fit."
Morgan also berated Breitbart editor Ben Shapiro on the topic of guns, and when Pratt appeared, Morgan "went off on Mr. Pratt in a way that rarely occurs outside some of the more rugged reality shows on television," said a New York Times blo
Craig Medred at the Alaska Dispatch called Morgan "delusional."
"There is no other way to describe a transplanted Brit who thinks gun control in America will somehow make the good, old U.S. of A. into some sort of clone of Merry Old England."
Medred said the "homicide rate in Alaska, where guns are everywhere, is 4 per 100,000; in New York City, where the mayor is trying to get rid of guns, the rate is 6.4 per 100,000 – more than 50 percent higher. Gun control doesn't necessarily work at all."
He noted that the homicide rate for Detroit is 48.2 per 100,000.
Morgan even turned an interview with author Larry Elder, who recently released "Dear Father, Dear Son," into a discussion about guns.
Elder explained the significance of having fathers in homes, noting the high crime rate in Chicago, where 75 percent of black children are born into homes without a father.
"This book that I've written, 'Dear Father, Dear Son,' is by far the most important book I've ever written because it's about the centrality of fathers," Elder said.
"The face of gun violence in this country, as horrific as Sandy Hook was, is not Newtown. It is Chicago, where 500 people last year were shot," he said.
"Chicago is a city with about a third black, a third white and a third Hispanic. However, 75 percent of murders in Chicago were committed by blacks, usually against other blacks, most of them gang-related.
"The question is why do these boys join these gangs, and the answer is they have no fathers in the house."
Morgan contended that the guns themselves are the problem.
Elder responded that studies have documented the influence of fathers, and even left-leaning leaders such as Kwasi Mfume and Jesse Jackson have confirmed the absence of fathers is a problem in black households.
In a recent WND column, Elder wrote that the "face of gun violence is not Sandy Hook. It is Chicago."
"In 2012, President Barack Obama's adopted hometown had 506 murders, including more than 60 children. Philadelphia, a city that local television newscasters frequently call 'Killadelphia,' saw 331 killed last year. In Detroit, 386 people were murdered," Elder wrote.
"Since 1966, there have been 90 school shootings in the U.S., with 231 fatalities. Yes, Sandy Hook shocked us. But the odds of a child being killed at a school shooting are longer than the odds of being struck by lightning," he said.
"Of the 11,000 to 12,000 gun murders each year, more than half involve both black killers and black victims, mostly in urban areas and mostly gang-related. The No. 1 cause of preventable death for young black men is not auto accidents or accidental drowning, but homicide."
The cause? Elder believes it is a "fatherless culture."
"Dads disappeared. Or, more precisely, to use Bill Cosby's term, the number of 'unwed fathers' exploded," he explained.
Elder's book, "Dear Father, Dear Son," is a personal memoir of his troubled relationship with his father and the astonishing outcome that develops when Elder finally confronts him.
Says Elder: "A man's relationship with his father – every boy, every man lucky enough to have a father in his life has to figure that out. My own father? I thought I knew him – even though he seldom talked about himself. And what I knew I hated – really, really hated. Cold, ill-tempered, thin-skinned, my father always seemed on the brink of erupting. Scared to death of him, I kept telling myself to find the courage to 'stand up to him.' When I was fifteen, I did." After that, said Elder, "We did not speak to each other for 10 years.
"And then we did – for eight hours."

The all-new L/S Rash Guard made from the tightly knit UPF50+ Cl-Pro Flex fabric offers the best sun protection available making it ideal to wear outdoors for any type of water activity or under your wetsuit for extra comfort.
|Intended Use:
|Wetsuit Type:
|Rash Vest
|Wetsuit Accessory:
Feel safer as you explore the open water, thanks to the Long Sleeve Rash Guard from Orca. Not only does it protect your body perfectly for all sorts of outdoor water activity, but it also features high visibility detailing to keep you seen.
Modern triathlon wetsuits were invented by Dan Empfield in 1987 and are customized to the needs of triathletes, they generally incorporate the following key features which differentiates them from a normal wetsuit. 1, Thinner and/or more pliable rubber near the shoulders. 2, Long zippers to facilitate quick removal during transition. In addition, tri wetsuits have a very smooth, but often fragile, surface. This slick surface helps to reduce water friction and allows a faster swim. Another advantage of a tri wetsuit is the added buoyancy that the wetsuit provides, this can provide triathletes with a considerable speed and energy saving advantage over swimming without a suit.
Whilst working as a swim coach, and from his first hand experience in competing in triathlon, Scott Unsworth realised that the wetsuits used at the time were completely inadequate for swimming. In 1992 Scott started up a company called Performance Speedsuits Ltd, based out of his parent's house in Auckland, New Zealand. He began to develop his "Speedsuits", which featured greater flexibility and buoyancy than other existing wetsuits. The business started with Scott selling his Speedsuits from the back of his car at swim meets and triathlon events. The Speedsuits quickly gained a following amongst athletes and the business started to grow. Scott was taking his first steps towards introducing what would become Orca, to the world. A young New Zealand triathlete named Hamish Carter became one of the first athletes to sign up with the company that is now Orca. Over the next 13 years Hamish Carter went on to become one of the best known triathletes in the world - culminating in a gold medal at the 2004 Olympics in Athens.

Family researchers love nothing better than to discover odd and interesting facts about their ancestors. Yes, we are happy when we can connect the correct lines and locate records that give important data. But, we shout with glee when strange bits show up along the way.
That is what occurred Friday afternoon when I stumbled on my husband's 1st cousin 3x removed, Peter Ruth Keller. Peter was born October 2, 1834 in Pennsylvania. Initially, I discovered nothing unusual about Peter's life. Without going the extra mile with research, the following oddities would never have been uncovered.
The first red flag came to light after entering Peter's vital records into the Ancestry database. There I noticed the conflicting information between the 1900 United State Federal Census and his death records.
This census record lists the enumerated date as June 11, 1900.
Listed is Peter R. Keller of 1921 Croskey Street residing with his daughter Elizabeth.

BROOKLYN PARK, Minn. (AP) -- Gov. Mark Dayton is challenging school leaders to find ways to lower Minnesota dropout rates, saying a diploma is essential to success in society.
Speaking Tuesday to a conference of superintendents, Dayton says he wants to focus on ways to keep students engaged through graduation. Minnesota recently set a goal of a 90 percent graduation rate by 2020.
Dayton also promised the school chiefs he would look next year to address state requirements that don't come with adequate state funding. He highlighted a new teacher assessment program as one area where schools are being asked to shoulder a financial burden to meet a state objective.

When it gets right down to it, Amanda Knox's meditative memoir Waiting To Be Heard may remind one of the way Gertrude Stein famously described Oakland: "There's no there there."
She basically emerges, after 463 pages, as nothing more than a young, impetuous innocent abroad who, as New York Times book critic Michiko Kakutani accurately nails it, "suddenly found her caught up in a Hitchcockian nightmare, with bad luck and some bad judgment calls leading her into a labyrinth seemingly without end."
Be forewarned, if you are looking to be titillated by salacious and jaw-dropping revelations (before plunking down $28.99) you may want to consider that this is pretty much as good as it gets, based on a review of critics who go an early look at the book:
-- She says she endured relentless sexual harassment at the hands of a vile senior prison guard and fellow female inmates while in prison, her upcoming bombshell tell-all book reveals. "He was fixated on the topic of sex — who I'd done it with, how I liked it . . . and if I would do it with him."
-- She says that she and then-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito were smoking marijuana (she smokes a lot of dope), reading a Harry Potter book aloud in German and watching the film Amélie at his apartment when her British roommate was killed.
-- Driven to despair, she contemplates suicide in prison, including poisoning herself with bleach, swallowing shards of glass or a broken pen, hanging herself, banging her heads against a wall, or as she says she imagined at one point, suffocating herself with a garbage bag.
-- She concedes she did act rather bizarrely after her housemate's murder and that when she went with police to the crime scene she put on protective booties and gloves and sang out, "Ta-Dah" and thrust out her arms "like the lead in a musical." It was, she writes, "to ease the tension for myself, because this was surreal and terrifying."
-- She says she was told by a doctor that she'd tested positive for H.I.V., but this turned out to be false.

Louis C. Vinci was recently named 2013 president of the Buffalo Niagara Association of Realtors at a ceremony held inside Salvatore's Italian Garden's.
Vinci came to America, the land of opportunity, from Italy when he was just a child. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree in business from the State University of Buffalo and worked in the banking industry.
A Williamsville resident, Vinci has been a member of BNAR since 1988 and has served in the capacity of director since 2002. He served on many BNAR committees as well as on the state and national level.
Congressman Brian Higgins installed Vinci as president.
"Louis will be a tremendous advocate for home owners in our region, especially the military, since he will be devoting his energy in helping our returning troops finding suitable housing and assisting them with special needs," said John B. Leonardi, BNAR CEO.
In addition to Louis's installation, the Honorable Penny Wolfgang installed the following individuals:
Officers: Christie Rothschild as president-elect; John Kopera as secretary/treasurer; Joe Rivellino as vice president; Amy Winklhofer as immediate past president; and Charlene Zoratti as president's adviser.
Directors serving three-year terms are Dennis Dargavel, James LoVallo, James Roberts and Ron Zaccagnino. Directors at large (one-year terms) include: Peter F. Hunt and Daniel Q. Symoniak; and regional director Rebecca Van Dorn, representing Genesee Valley.
The Realtor Association also presented the Realtor of the Year Award to Michael Johnson and Realtor-Associate of the Year to Lawrence Lentini. The awards are based on exemplary service and participation in the BNAR, the real estate community, the national and state association and involvement and service in civic, community, church and charitable projects, as well as business accomplishments
One of the last acts taken by the outgoing BNAR president is recognizing the efforts of local citizens who dedicate his or herself to improving the quality of life in Western New York. The Communities of Excellence Award was presented to Higgins at the inauguration event. Also, special recognition for exceptional accomplishments in the service to the BNAR, the Buffalo Award was presented to Margaret Hartman.
BNAR is a trade organization with more than 2,500 local members whose mission is to promote professionalism, real estate property rights and values, and the voice for real estate in the Western New York area.

After 27 grueling hours of labor (poor Heidi), our son, Phoenix, was born. Seventy-two hours later, I'm on a plane to Port-au-Prince to scoop up our daughter, Lukensia, and make our family complete.
Heading to the airport, I felt anxious and overwhelmed. I hadn't eaten for days. During Heidi's three days of labor and recovery, I was simultaneously dotting i's and crossing t's for our daughter's visa into the U.S. and wrapping up the final stages of her adoption process. I held it together until I walked through those orphanage doors. Our little girl saw me and climbed into my arms—she knew it was finally time to go home. I fell to my knees and wept. Sounds like a movie, right? Except this really happened!
In 2010 my partner, Heidi, and I started trying to adopt, a process that became more discouraging and heartbreaking by the day. As a result, we decided to get pregnant. Of course, the day we found out we were having a baby, we learned that we'd been matched with a child from Haiti. I brought Lu home four days after our son was born.
This movie sounds like a drama, but it ended up a comedy. You know, the one where the parents are exhausted, at each other's throats, and covered in poop, pee, and spit-up 24/7. We were two utterly unprepared parents caring for a newborn and an adopted toddler who didn't speak English.
Let's not sugarcoat this: It was really, really hard. Shortly after Lu got home, she had to have 20 vials of blood drawn. I was instructed to physically restrain her while they repeatedly jabbed needles in her tiny arms for a two-hour stretch. She looked into my eyes and cried over and over, "Help, Mama, help." Then Phoenix got croup. Heidi and I took turns melting in our steam-filled bathroom just so he could breathe long enough to take his bottle.
My life had become so centered around the kids that I felt like a part of me had died. I'm not woman enough for this, I thought. I'd imagined that I'd be so drunk with love that everything else would fall by the wayside, but that wasn't the case. It left me feeling guilty, scared, and confused.
I didn't know it then, but I was learning that parenthood is the great equalizer. Everyone starts as a beginner and improves with time (even life coaches!). I have accepted that a part of me had died, but another part of me was being born. My kids are remaking me into a stronger, more selfless woman—a woman I can be proud of.
I may not be the best mom in the world, but today everyone in our house is smiling more than we're crying. For some, that's just good enough. To me, it's a huge success.

Human papilloma (pap-ee-LO-ma) virus (HPV) is the name given to more than 60 different viruses that cause warts on the skin. Millions of Americans are infected with HPV. Some types of HPV cause genital warts and are passed to others by skin-to-skin contact during vaginal, anal, or oral sex.
Most people who have HPV have no symptoms. They can carry and pass it to their sex partners without knowing it. Symptoms can appear as soon as 2 weeks or as long as years after you or your partner is infected.
Genital warts are very easy to catch (contagious). Some people do not notice them because they are painless or may be on the inside of the vagina or anus or in the urethra of the man. Genital skin that looks normal may be infected with HPV.
Some HPV types can increase the risk for cancer of the cervix, vulva, vagina, anus, and penis.
HPV can cause abnormal Pap smears. Yearly Pap smears can find cervical cancer early by showing abnormal cells on the surface of the cervix. When abnormal cells are found and treated early, cancer can usually be prevented. Women with genital warts need to have Pap smears as their doctor recommends. They should also be aware that other risk factors for cervical cancer are first intercourse at an early age, smoking, and exposure to other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).
It's important that a pregnant woman tell her doctor or midwife if she or her partner(s) have or ever have had HPV or genital warts.
Genital warts sometimes cause problems during pregnancy and delivery. Warts can grow in size and number, bleed, or make delivery more difficult. This happens because of hormone changes in the body during pregnancy. A woman with genital warts does not need to have a cesarean delivery unless warts are blocking the birth canal.
The only sure way to know if you have HPV is through regular exams by your doctor. Sometimes your doctor will use a magnifying glass to identify small warts. A scraping of the cells may also be sent to the lab.
Treatment destroys infected cells but does not always destroy all of the infected cells. Because the virus can stay in the skin cells without symptoms, warts can return months or even years after treatment.
Be patient. Treatment often takes several visits, and your doctor may use different methods (topical solution or creams, freezing, laser therapy, or surgery). Your doctor can talk with you about HPV infections and the best treatment for you. Avoid sex while you are being treated. If you smoke, try to quit. It may help to clear up the warts faster.
If you have sex, you could be at risk for having an STD. See your doctor to be tested. Following are some ways to reduce your risk.
Except for not having sex (abstinence), latex condoms give the best protection from any sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. Condoms are helpful only if they are used the right way.
Note: If you or your partner has an allergy to latex, talk with your doctor. Important steps for using condoms correctly:

How to open up without letting it all hang out, plus why real men don't text, and a question about being friendly without becoming a "friendgirl."
Featured musical artist: Derek Webb
[25:36] -
If you grew up being told that emotions are bad, you may be frustrated when you're asked to share your heart, especially if what you're feeling isn't all sunshine and roses. How can you share emotions in an appropriate way? How does this apply in friendship, small groups, Bible studies and beyond? How do you know when to go deep and when to hold back? Our panel has some ideas.
[18:56] -
It used to be that if you wanted to ask a girl out, you walked up to her door with a bouquet of flowers. When telephones began to grace every home, a simple phone call became acceptable. But in today's culture, it seems that anything goes. Even texting has become the norm for starting, ending and sustaining relationships — or worse — non-relationships. Ruthie Dean, coauthor (with her husband, Michael) of the new book Real Men Don't Text, thinks that our standards have sunk too low, and it's time to reclaim them.
[4:25] -
If most of your peers hang out in groups, is it OK to join in? How can you balance between being too available and too standoffish in a crowd where seemingly no one is singled out? Will this help or hinder your path to something deeper, if that's what you want? Counselor Christina Browning comments.

Wat Chom Khiri Nat Phrot
Wat Chom Khiri Nat Phrot is on the peak of Khao Buat Nak between the foot of Dechatiwong Bridge and Chiraprawat Fort. Legend says that when Burmese troops sacked Ayutthaya for the second time, they built this temple to show that they also hold the Buddhism faith.

"The set up of the incubator was very easy. It is also easy to use. The instructions for sterilizing are very clear with pictures shown. Even the water tray has markings showing exactly how much water to fill up. We had issues with alarm going off whenever we opened the door. This happened right after we had the incubator calibrated. We had quick service response and they fixed it. We have not had any issues with contamination (fingers crossed). I would definitely recommend this product. If you are new lab, don't go with any other incubators, you will waste money with them. This product will last you long and is durable. Response from the company is instant."
The standard CO2 incubator meets all basic requirements for cell and tissue cultures.

GoLeads Inbound Marketing Program.
If you're looking to grow your business in Sanitary Food Container Manufacturers – or any industry for that matter – then think about implementing an inbound marketing strategy, and have customers come to you.
First, let's define what we mean by an Inbound Marketing Strategy.
An Inbound Marketing Strategy is when potential customers find you, and contact you because they are interested in your product or service. They find you, as opposed to you finding them. They come to you and start the dialogue about how you can help them. It's a great strategy when executed properly to get new customers. A good inbound strategy ensures you're in the right place at the right time when a qualified prospect is researching your product or service.
The advantage of implementing an inbound strategy is that you are able to reach and connect with those who are deep in the decision-making process and about to purchase. Inbound brings qualified prospects to you and cuts out a lot of the time spent finding them.
That's the difference between an Inbound Marketing Strategy and an Outbound Marketing Strategy. With Inbound, qualified prospects come to you. With Outbound, you find them.
Contact GoLeads today if you are interested in growing your business and learning more about implementing an inbound marketing strategy. We'll work to make your website "front and center" when someone is researching your product or service.
Call us or complete the Contact Order Form and someone will contact you.
Be found by those looking for your product or service.
Get businesses to contact you!
Be present. Be found. Be social. Be contacted.
Get customers to come to you as opposed to you always having to find them. Increase your close rate and get more customers by getting potentially new customers to come to you.
We build Inbound Programs to get people who are searching for your product to find you online. Once they find you, we then work to get them to contact you.
Get more customers with inbound marketing. Complement your outbound efforts with inbound marketing and increase your number of customers.
What does all this mean? The end goal is to Grow Your Business! Complement your outbound efforts with a strong Inbound Campaign to increase your revenue stream.
Growing your business is an exciting process. It's also a difficult one. The key is to know what you do and don't need to do. The fact is, mistakes will be made when it comes to marketing your business. After all, sometimes things just come out of le...Read More

Hickory native in a documentary
Michael Fox doesn't claim to be the inventor of the dulcijo, but he certainly plays the hybrid instrument like it's all his own.
Fox, 54, of Hickory, started experimenting several years ago on the design of an instrument with the neck of a dulcimer and the drum of a banjo, and after infusing the right parts in each instrument into one music-maker, the dulcijo was born.
"It finally, after about five or 10 years, came together," Fox said. "I just came up with this name, and I thought it was unique."
But after some research, Fox discovered that other dulcijos exist in the United States. Each dulcijo is as unique as its creator, and the fact that other instruments similar to his exist in the world doesn't bother Fox at all.
"I don't much care," he said. "I don't know who was first. I certainly don't go around claiming invention. I just like playing it. It's about all I play now."
Fox plays music in the style of what he calls traditional Appalachian Mountain music.
He uses his left hand to play the dulcijo like a dulcimer, and he uses his right hand to pluck the instrument in the old-time claw hammer banjo style, which requires Fox to play the dulcijo with a downward stroke of the back of his fingernail.
"It's the way folks played prior to the introduction of microphones and radios," he said. "It's played like they did in barns and square dances, and it's really associated with the mountains."
Fox's traditional mountain music caught the ear of documentarian Bruce Bowers last year at the Apple Festival in Wilkesboro while Fox and a friend were sitting by the road playing their instruments.
"A gentleman asked if he could use my music in his documentary," Fox said. "I thought it was neat, but I didn't think much of it."
Fox sent Bowers a copy of several of Fox's songs on a CD, and Bowers infused the music into his documentary, which premiered Sunday at 7 p.m. on WTVI in Charlotte.
"I didn't know what (the documentary) was going to be like, but I was really pleased when I saw it," Fox said. "The music is really just kind of subtle in the background. (Bowers) really does a good job of just blending it into the film."
Fox's music featured on the documentary is a combination of classic favorites, like "Amazing Grace," as well as a tune he wrote, called "Robin in the Road."
The unique design of Fox's dulcijo makes it easier for Fox to play certain scales and keys on the instrument.
Traditional banjos have five strings, but the dulcijo has three. Instead of regularly spaced frets along the neck of the instrument, the dulcijo leaves out certain frets that aren't necessary when playing the mountain-style music.
"It would be a lot like leaving a couple of black keys off a piano," he said.

My album of 2009 by Admin
My Album of 2009, by Daniel Burton (age 21).
My Album of 2009, by Daniel Burton (age 21).
I turned on Unsatisfied to listen to while i read your blog. blarg. i think people did listen to the album, it got a lot of hype and was mentioned on a lot of 09 lists that i read. ill show you or something.
– trummer
I dislike this album, a lot, but this is a good review.
oh! Amy, I meant, people who post on the KWUR blog didn't put it on their lists. I didn't mean "no one in the world but me likes this album." It definitely got a lot of hype and stuff.
Agreed, agreed, agreed on all points.
The first time I really listened to the album in its entirety was as the accompaniment to the most moving dance performance I've ever witnessed, which might have helped my first impressions. My then-roommate and I actually cried, it was so beautiful.
Finger snaps.

Volkswagens on the Green for 2005 is currently in the planning stage.IMPORTANT NEWS!At the last VWOTG meeting it was proposed that this show be returned to its roots as a VINTAGE AIR COOLED VW show. This would involve a return to previous classes (such as the How low can you go, Split Loaf, Holier than the rest etc). This would also involve a return to the earliest parking style where cars are parked as they arrive, rather than in any specific class.This decision will need to be discussed by as many members as possible. Therefore there will be a special VWOTG meeting in the near future. As soon as I know the date and location I will have it put up here as well as on the main page.
Oh, well this makes it all clear now:http://www.bestvwclub.com/forum2/viewtopic.php?t=2820Right?
Yeah it's still there I just clicked on it.
We'll just stick to the news from VWEC, the Onion and Al Sharpton.
There really needs to be a Spring show that highlights the VW/Audi community, not one persons agenda/ego.
I must've misread it...looked like they're two separate things.Whatever...guess that'll keep me from bug shopping :lol:
"Scientists create 'perfect' toast"That's not the way to make my perfect toast! I like my butter completely melted. Perfect is a variable, which would make this scientific experiment subjective.

it's my first post here and i'm really happy to be part of your community!
I'm from Italy, in Europe, and me and a couple of vegan pals are having some difficulties to find supplements that are 100% vegan. We mainly buy from a UK website named MyProtein (http://www.myprotein.com/), that has enough vegan stuff but doesn't have vegan BCAA tablets anymore.
So, we discovered that BCAA created with Kyowa method, likewise Ajinomoto, seems to be always vegan. And Kyowa BCAA are really easy to find here in Italy.
That's my question: do you know if Kyowa BCAA can be considered always 100% vegan?
I don't know if you've got them too in USA, but that's their BCAA page: http://www.kyowahakko-bio.co.jp/english ... acids.html
In 1956, Kyowa Hakko BIO became the first company in the world to succeed in the industrial production of amino acids using fermentation methods.
In the past,hydroxyproline was made with the hydrolytic cleavage of animal collagen.This microorganism-based production method has received an extremely positive response
Can you help me?
Thank you in advance!
